Just a spoonful of sugar and a few of our favourite things from the very creative and super chic- Milk and Honey Collection...Pop into etsy and day dream, or purchase something special from Milk and Honey xo | 'Good morning!  Click here for the lovely Sarah's Etsy Store Now that it's 9am here on the east coast I have finished my first cup of coffee and am feeling a little more human (that lost hour of sleep from daylight savings time has really messed with me this year!) First of all thank you so much for writing about me and etsy in general. I'm still relatively new to it, but I just love that there's a place where you can find literally ANYthing you're looking to buy and all of it is by handmade small businesses. If i spent half as much time listing items as I do drooling over all the offerings, I'd probably be even busier with my shop. Best, Sarah' |
Brunswick Stew
Here is one of my favorite recipes. It's Brunswick Stew, which one claim says actually originated here in Virginia, in Brunswick Country (though nearly every southern state has tried to lay claim to it). The original recipe calls for squirrel meat, but I don't think anyone makes it that way anymore (or at least I really hope they don't!). I usually make an enormous pot of this on the first really cold fall day and serve it with a side of cornbread. Here's the recipe I use:
Pantry must haves: ~1 3-pound Chicken, cut into pieces (I use one of the rotisserie ones you can find already cooked at the grocery store) ~ 6-8 cups chicken broth ~1 cup chopped onions ~ 1/2 cup diced celery ~ 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper ~ 1 16-ounce can tomatoes, drained ~1 10-ounce package frozen butter beans (or lima beans) ~2 cups diced potatoes ~1 16-ounce can shoepeg corn ~ 1/4 cup of catsup ~2 tablespoons red wine vinegar ~ 1 tablespoons sugar ~ 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce ~ 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (tabasco) ~ 2-3 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled ~2 tablespoons butter | Directions:
When I make this in the summer I use fresh veggies instead of canned/frozen. But it's such a great winter dish that I usually don't have fresh on hand. Now I've made myself hungry, off to the kitchen to graze! |
I need, I want & I must have...
